Small object about size of a light bulb reflecting the sun off the surface of it. Observed for about 4-5 blocks as car was traveling.
Nov 1, 2024: About 1:56 p.m. as passenger in front seat of car traveling south in the left lane (4 lane road) I noticed a very bright spot just above the tree line (suburban tree height-not grand oaks or maples, etc) that was keeping the same pace that the car was traveling (35-40mph). A small object about the size of a light bulb, thus couldn't determine distance of the object. The brightness of the object was of sunlight brightness. Couldn't really stare at it. The sun itself was higher up in the sky and slightly to the right of the object. As we are traveling south the object would drop behind the tops of the tree line (which is jagged of course). I realized the object was not moving up or down but that the car was dipping and rising with the road, causing the object to be behind the trees and then over them. I realized the brightness may be the sun reflecting off of the object. The lower section was not reflecting or bright, it was silver-grey. Observed this for 4 to 5 blocks.
Then, while sitting at the red light at the intersection of S. Highland Ave. and Butterfield Road, facing south the object quickly passed across our view from left to right and disappeared. My wife saw this also as the car was stopped and it was right in front of us. Size and extreme brightness were the same.
